If we were having coffee this morning, I would tell you that I now love coffee. I just started drinking it recently and now I love it! I look forward to each day. That probably isn’t a good thing but I sure do like it!

If we were having coffee this morning, I would tell you that my mom is here and we are having a great time! We are working on wedding stuff. We have went to our venue to walk the space and plan how it will be set up, we will be getting the items needed to finish up the center pieces, and finally we are going to spend some time celebrating her since it is mothers day tomorrow.

If we were having coffee this morning, I would tell you that I am so happy because my traumatic brain injury follow up appointment I had on Thursday went very well. My doctor told me that she has heard from my speech, occupational, and physical therapists that I am a star patient and because of that I am progressing well. She expects (but of course cannot guarantee) a full recovery! It may take up to two years but hey, I will take it!

If we were having coffee this morning, I would tell you that my return to work is going well! I was very worry about going back to work because I had tried twice before but I was getting terrible headaches. This time around, I am very slowly getting back to work but it is working. I was supposed to work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for four hours the first two weeks. But the very first week went so well, I was able to change the plan and go back this past week for 16 hours! Next week, I will be working 2o hours. I am very excited to get back to a normal schedule!

If we were having coffee this morning, I would tell you I am finally starting to feel like everything is getting back to the way it was before my fall. I am back to work part time but at least I am working, I am hoping to start boxing again this week, I have started doing yoga, and I am blogging again! This week I graduated from speech therapy and next week I will hopefully graduate from physical therapy. Everything takes twice as long as it used to (and I mean everything) and I have to approach many thing differently because my brain just don’t work the same but I am feeling like I can get back (hopefully better) to the person I was before the fall!

If you joined my for my first ultimate coffee date this morning, what would you tell me?

Yay! Welcome to the Ultimate Coffee Date! I’m really glad to hear that you’re recovering well from your TBI, and that you have an awesome team behind you! <3 I spend Wednesday mornings at a concussion clinic with my preceptor, so I'm currently on the "other side" trying to learn how to best manage them! Make sure you give yourself proper breaks if you start getting headaches/blurry vision/dizziness/etc.! Sending you lots of good thoughts for a speedy full recovery! <3

So glad that you decided to join us for the coffee date! Look forward to getting to know you better. Great news that your recovery is going so well and you are back to running. Love how you told that sidewalk a thing or 2!! Hope to see you again soon on the blog and for coffee

Hey Missy. I just joined the link up for the first time today, and it’s so lovely to find other blogs to read. If we were meeting up today, I’d tell you I’m so glad that you’re making such brilliant progress and slowly find your way back to something that feels like normal. And then I’d want to hear more about your wedding plans! Take care!!

I’m so glad to hear that you have been recovering well since your fall and gradually getting back to the things you love. I love that you wrote that on the sidewalk, so inspiring! I hope you had a great Mother’s Day weekend with your mom!

I love coffee. They say a cup a day can actually have health benefits. The problem is most people have more than 1 cup. I hear it’s get to have before running. Also I am so glad you doctor appointment went well. I hope you had a great time with your mom this weekend. Also did you get my email? You won my CaseApp custom phone cover giveaway?

It’s so great to hear how well you are healing and that you have such a great attitude. Sounds like a great plan…taking it all slow. You will be 100% before you know it! I have never done a coffee date either. Maybe now, I’ll shoot for the 1st Saturday of June. Well have a great day and have fun with your mom!

This is cool! I love hearing all about what is going on and your updates on life! You are doing amazing and I love hearing about the progress you are making! You are definitely coming back stronger than ever!

Coffee is my total life line. I usually do not speak to anyone until I have finished at least a half of a cup. Congrats on graduating speech therapy! Sounds like you are on the fast track to “back to normal”. I wish a full and speedy recovery!!
